Stories from Ellipsis

Who am I? Just someone who tells stories from Ellipsis. I am known by many names, none of which are "He Who Must not be Named." No, I am nowhere as mysterious as him. Besides you can say my name. My name is... what was it again?

Anyway, as I was saying, I am known by many names. "He who sits down and tells stories," "The storyteller of Ellipsis," "That Guy over there who tells stories," "Him, over there, the weird one telling stories no one wants to hear," "Stop that Freak over There..." and many more. Yes, I am known by many names.

But, my name is not important. All that you need to know, is that I tell stories from Ellipsis.

"What is Ellipsis?" you ask. Ellipsis is not necessarily here nor there... but it is somewhere. Yes, it probably is somewhere.

"Is Ellipsis real?" you ask. Hmm... it's real but at the same time it's also not real. Or maybe it could be either or. An illusion that's reality... reality that's an illusion. Who knows. What is real and what is an illusion?

There are many versions of Ellipsis, and each one is Ellipsis. One version may be similar to another... while another completely different. However, each Ellipsis is still Ellipsis. Furthermore, the happenings of Ellipsis varies from person to person. Yet, each Ellipsis remains Ellipsis.

"What are you talking about?" you ask. Ah... what's with all these questions. We're not playing 21 Questions over here. Look, all you need to know is that I'll going to tell you stories... stories from Ellipsis. Okay? Okay.

So, do you want to hear a story? You do? Okay... Once upon a ti- actually, I don't feel like telling a story right now. Let's save it for another time. 

Problems and Non Problems

I felt like writing something that makes no sense. Not so much not to not make sense, but rather to write something, without being required to make sense. So, just to make things clear, that there is absolutely no value in reading what follows:

There are problems and there are non-problems
We all have problems. But, when problems are not being problems, then does that make them non-problems? 

Well, since we all have problems and since problems which are not being problems are non-problems, it means we all have non-problems. Why? because at some point that problem that you now have, you didn't have, not necessarily because it didn't exist, but rather because the problem was being a non-problem. 

Furthermore, when a problem is no longer a problem, then it automatically becomes a non-problem because it is no longer a problem. Think about it logically, A problem is a problem because it is a problem. So, it logically follows that if it is no longer a problem, then there is no way that it can still be a problem.

From problem to non-problem
A problem is a problem because it is a problem, not because it chose to be, but rather by virtue of it being a problem, it is a problem. 

Over time a problem may end up no longer being a problem. What does this mean? Well, it means that in certain cases, just by allowing time to pass, a problem can become a not problem. Does this then mean that the reverse is also possible? Can something that was not a problem become a problem over time? 

If then, over time, a problem can change into something that is no longer a problem and something that was not a problem can then later become a problem, it means that a problem can change back and forth between problem and not problem. So, if it can change from problem to not problem and back to a problem... and back to a not problem, is there actually a problem in the first place?

The End

If at the end of reading this, you're thinking to yourself, "this makes no sense at all!" Don't worry, you're absolutely correct, because it's not meant to make sense. So, why purposefully write something that makes no sense? Because, sometimes it's fun to not make sense.

Sometimes writing something that makes no sense is fun, just like how it's fun to sometimes colour outside the lines of a picture, or paint an abstract painting, or read something so complicated that you have absolutely no idea what you're reading. It's fun because the limitations are removed, there are no longer any expectations, no set structure that has to be followed... which means that you're free to be as creative as you want to be.

So, go write something that makes no sense... no one else has to read it. Or, find a colouring book and colour outside the lines. Or, read something that you know absolutely nothing about that is complex, like an advanced mathematics or physics paper (seriously, it's fun just to pretend like you know what all the numbers and signs mean)

Writing without a Point

I wanted to write something (well I suppose in this case, type something) but I couldn't decide on what to write. So, to put it bluntly, there is no reason behind this post, no point to make, to clear insight or logical flow, no knowledge to impart. I just felt like typing something.

Well, seeing as I'm already typing, I might as well make up some point that I can make. Okay, here goes:
Every now and then, when you do something, ask yourself what is the point of doing it? What is the reason behind it? what do you want to achieve by doing what you're doing?

If there is no point to doing what you're doing, then you're just wasting time. And, if what you're doing has a point, then is what you're doing achieving that point... if not, then you're wasting time (unless if there is some other benefit to gain from doing what you're doing).

So, lets say you're stressed. You plan to relax by watching a movie. But, during the movie, your constantly thinking about all the work that you still have to do. By the end of the movie, you're still stressed. Why, why didn't you just ignore the work that's waiting for you and enjoy the movie? Wasn't the point of watching the movie to relax?

It's almost like doing something half-heartily. Why do it in the first place if you're not going to to it properly? It's not as if doing something half will still yield half the benefit that doing something properly would have yielded. It's like deciding to exercise with the aim of being more healthy, but then you decide to get more unhealthy foods...like food that has been drowned in oil and pumped full of sugar.

If you do something with an aim in mind, will it achieve that aim (or at least get you closer). If not, is there some other benefit to doing it? If not, aren't you wasting your time?
